Find contract risks and renewals across legal docs

Legal, finance, and customer success teams need to find renewal terms, audit rights, termination clauses, data residency language, and risky obligations across contracts. VectorAmp helps surface the right clauses with source citations.

What you will build​

A contract intelligence workspace over MSAs, DPAs, order forms, redlines, renewal trackers, and legal notes.

Prerequisites​

  • Contract source folder or bucket.
  • Metadata for customer, region, contract type, status, and renewal year.
  • Human legal review for final interpretation.

Step 1: Organize contracts​

Suggested source structure:

contracts/
  msa/
  dpa/
  order-forms/
  redlines/
  renewal-trackers/

Suggested metadata:

{
  "customer": "acme",
  "region": "eu",
  "contract_type": "dpa",
  "status": "executed",
  "renewal_year": 2027
}

Step 2: Ingest files​

vectoramp datasets create contract-intelligence --metadata '{"owner":"legal"}'
vectoramp --dataset ds_123 datasets ingest-files ./contracts --extensions pdf,docx,txt,csv

For cloud storage:

vectoramp --dataset ds_123 sources ingest s3 s3://company-legal/contracts \
  --config '{"sync_mode":"incremental"}'

Step 3: Search clauses with filters​

from vectoramp import VectorAmp

client = VectorAmp(api_key="vsk_...")
dataset = client.datasets.get("ds_123")

results = dataset.search(
    text="termination for convenience renewal clause",
    top_k=20,
    filters={"region": "eu", "contract_type": "msa"},
    advanced_filters=[{"field": "renewal_year", "op": "gte", "value": 2027}],
    include_documents=True,
)

Step 4: Ask review questions​

  • “Which 2027 renewals mention termination for convenience?”
  • “Find contracts with EU data residency language.”
  • “Which DPAs reference subprocessors?”
  • “Summarize audit-right clauses by customer.”

Step 5: Turn results into a review list​

Use VectorAmp for discovery and citations. Legal counsel should verify final interpretation before outreach or customer-facing action.

Validation checklist​

  • Each answer cites original contract text.
  • Filters match known contract metadata.
  • Redlines and executed contracts are clearly distinguished.
  • Renewal-year metadata is normalized as a number.
